Kaiavere Manor

Kaiavere mõis · German: Kayafer

Kaiavere's history begins with a gift to the church. The first record dates from 1417, when Otto von Uexküll left the estate to the Cistercian convent of nuns in Tartu. In 1512 Bishop Gerhard Schrove of Tartu granted it as a fief to the brothers Johann and Heinrich Luggenhusen, and later it passed through a long line of families, from the Wrangells to the last owner, Baron Alexander von Tiesenhausen. The manor house has disappeared; in the park only the ruins of the farmhands' house and a few outbuildings recall the estate.

Eesti keeles

Kaiavere ajalugu algab kingitusega kirikule. Esimesed teated pärinevad 1417. aastast, mil Otto von Uexküll pärandas mõisa Tartu tsistertslaste nunnakloostrile. 1512. aastal andis Tartu piiskop Gerhard Schrove selle lääniks vendadele Johann ja Heinrich Luggenhusenile ning hiljem käis mõis läbi pika rea suguvõsade, Wrangellidest kuni viimase omaniku parun Alexander von Tiesenhausenini. Härrastemaja on kadunud; pargis meenutavad mõisat vaid moonakatemaja varemed ja mõned kõrvalhooned.
